Having done them both badly in the last year doesn't help the confidence to just 'let go' either. And some of it may just be old age

rf_fozzy Oct 2020 3:28pm, 12 Oct 2020 11,826 posts	0 rf_fozzy You got a similar route for Whernside, Great Coum and Gragareth, NE? Was thinking of doing a route from Kingsdale up Whernside, down and over to Great Coum and then over the top to Gragareth. Not been up there since the (now sadly defunct) Whernside race.
Northern Exile Oct 2020 3:38pm, 12 Oct 2020 6,912 posts	0 Northern Exile Afraid not, but I'm pretty sure I could cobble something together for you as I do have the Fellsman lines down to Kingsdale, up to Gragareth and along to Great Coum. Perhaps an option would be to drop down to Dent and again following the Fellsman route go up to Boot O' The Wold and then climb Whernside from there, going past Whernside Tarns. It's nice running territory up there and little known. Most people don't even realise there are tarns on Whernside
rf_fozzy Oct 2020 3:42pm, 12 Oct 2020 11,827 posts	0 rf_fozzy I was thinking something like this: gmap-pedometer.com Although 15miles might still be a bit far for me at the moment. I've been up the climb from Dent past the Tarns before (doing the Whernside FR). It's easily the nicest (and quietest) way up Whernside.
